Non Iraqis are not entilted to human rights

[h&s]

Seems like the US thinks that human rights are over-rated.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Bush administration has decided that some non-Iraqi prisoners captured by American forces in Iraq are not entitled to the protection of the Geneva Conventions, the New York Times reported Tuesday.

According to unnamed administration officials who spoke with the newspaper, the opinion reached in recent months holds that there are exceptions to previous U.S. assertions that the Geneva Conventions apply to all prisoners taken in the Iraq war.

It's pretty amazing how bold and daring the U.S. ruling class has become, feeling so secure in its current state that it can thumb its nose even at other ruling classes within the U.N. and make a mockery out of everything that protects basic human rights... The heavy cloud of fascism continues to spread across AmeriKKKa, and now more than ever we must build a resistance to stop it.
